Condition
Duesenberg supercharger installed for its second owner, Powel Crosley, Jr., and original coachwork swapped from another Duesenberg chassis to this chassis-only delivery. The supercharger is an original Duesenberg part acquired by Lee Herrington before restoration. Magnificent older concours restoration with open fenders instead of the skirted fenders as delivered to Powel Crosley, Jr. A-C-D Festival Best of Show and Pebble Beach Best in Class in 2008. Shows a little age but no use except driving on and off show fields.
Market commentary
Represented as 'factory-supercharged', which is a bit of stretch for this factory branch upgraded car. The 'original' body is the first installed on this chassis, but it had been on an earlier Duesenberg before it got here and on its SJ chassis the body had skirted fenders. Quibbles out of the way, it is a spectacular automobile, beautifully restored, and sets a standard for closed Duesenbergs.
